EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image, Count and Countess Haugwitz-Reventlow, formerly Barbara Hutton, the renowned American heiress, are seen enjoying a leisurely lunch by the poolside at Monte Carlo Beach on the French Riviera. The year is 1936, and the glamour and sophistication of the European jet set are on full display. Barbara Hutton, born into the wealthy Hutton family, who founded the Woolworth five-and-dime store chain, had made headlines for her extravagant lifestyle and multiple high-profile marriages. In this photograph, she is dressed in a chic, stylish outfit, her blonde hair casually swept back, exuding an air of effortless elegance. Her companion, Count Haugwitz-Reventlow, a German nobleman, cuts an imposing figure in his formal attire, adding an air of old-world charm to the scene. Monte Carlo Beach, with its crystal-clear waters and picturesque surroundings, was a popular destination for the rich and famous during the 1930s. The couple's lunchtime rendezvous by the poolside is a testament to their privileged lifestyle and their ability to indulge in the pleasures of the French Riviera. This photograph captures a moment in time when the worlds of high society and European glamour intersected, leaving us with a vivid image of a bygone era. The Count and Countess Haugwitz-Reventlow, with their timeless beauty and air of refinement, continue to captivate us, offering a glimpse into a world of wealth, luxury, and elegance.
